Postdoctoral Fellow Position in Magnetoreception and Animal Navigation
PI: Dr. Can Xie
Project Title: The molecular mechanism of magnetoreception and animal
navigation
Project Description:
This job comes from a partnership with Beijing Computational Science
Research Center (CSRC) and Xie Lab at Peking University (PKU), aiming at
bridging biology and physics to resolve the molecular mechanism of
magnetoreception and navigation in animals.
The project is an extension of our recently identified magnetoreceptor (
designated as MagR) and the proposed biocompass model (Qin, et. al. Nature
Materials, 2016). The project is designed to provide answers and insights to
questions: What is the origin of magnetic moments of MagR? How the light-
and magneto- perceptions are coupled in the Biocompass model? How to apply
magnetic fields to modulate biological processes based on MagR?
Requirements: Ph.D. degree in Biology, or Biochemistry, or Biophysics, or
related fields. We especially encourage candidates with research experience
in protein purification, structural biology to apply for the position.
Expertise in physics would be a plus, but not mandatory. The successful
candidate must be creative, demonstrate an “out-of-the-box thinking”
attitude, and possess strong problem-solving skills. As part of the
collaborative team led by both biologists and physicists, the postdoc fellow
will regularly interact with scientists from different disciplines,
including but not limited to, protein biochemistry, biophysics, quantum
biology, theoretical physics, and computational physics. Therefore,
excellent communication skills are essential.
Benefits: competitive salary with extra benefits in housing etc.
How to Apply: Applications are encouraged until the vacancy has been filled.
Interested candidates please send a cover letter, a CV, with three
recommendation letters to Dr. Can Xie ([email protected]/* */) for any additional
information. |
